Harry was looking at Ginny as she quickly went to his second drawer; it had slowly become hers over the month of staying the weekend. It had some extra towels and pajamas and a few other things she found out she needed on the weekends. She grabbed a pair short shorts and a long sleeve shirt. She went into the bathroom quickly changed and walked back out. Harry could never get enough of her. In one of their many conversations Harry had confessed that he loved her long legs and she was definitely letting him see them tonight. Her shorts just covered the curve of her bottom and her shirt was tight accenting the soft mounds that were her breasts. She had no makeup on which he liked the most, seeing her pure natural beauty. She smiled the biggest smile she could when she saw the look of his face. She was trying to get past the images that flash in her head when she thinks of the relationship she and he both want. She sees amazing images of Harry and her in very compromising potions, but then as soon as things get really good in her head a flash of Tom pops in her head and she can't shake it. She was done with all this she was done of not being over it. Instead of getting in bed she doesn't say a word and walks out the door.
Harry was utterly confused she wasn't mad, she didn't yell and there was nowhere she needed to be. She quickly walked down the steps watching as they moved. Harry was on her tail she wasn't surprised. She didn't say anything she couldn't find the strength. As she walked to her intended spot she saw Ron and Hermione walking toward the room, they were so happy looking so lost in each other they never noticed that they passed. Harry also noticed the young lovers lost in each other grinning happily. He would be sure to ask later. Ginny quickened pace thinking of how she was going to get away. She saw Professor Snape's beautiful potions room and noticed it was open how lucky could she get.
"What are you doing?" Harry ask, but she chose not to answer. She walked back to the supply room which was wide open this must truly be her day. She grabbed exactly what she needed frog eyes, beetle wings, snake oil, vanishing creme, water from an oak tree, and a cauldron. Harry just watched until it clicked.
"Ginny no this is dangerous, you are not doing this." Harry started he was trying to stay calm
She was trying to forget, no doubt the chamber of secrets. "HARRY I'm done with this, I'm tired of not being with you. I'M TIRED THAT EVERYONE OF MY FANTASIES OF YOU END WITH HIS EVIL FACE, THE MENTAL PAIN LIKE IT JUST HAPPENED YESTERDAY!" Ginny shouted.
Harry just looked at her not knowing what to say and neither realizing that the room connected to Snape's personal rooms.
"Damn it what now", Snape said as he heard the yells coming from Ginny Weasley in his storage room. He looked at the half disrobed women in front of him as she quickly put her shirt and pants back on as Snape reached for the door. He was quite though as he picked up on the conversation. ….
"like this, please Ginny not like this." There were tears in both of their eyes Snape could see.
He saw the things set on the table, this was bad.
"I can't, I can't talk about it thinking about it makes me never even want to have sex and sometimes I can't help but thinking of him when you touch me. I just want to forget Harry." Ginny said as she collapsed on the floor Harry ran up to her embracing her as silent tears came from his eyes and giant loud sobs came from her.
"Excuse me Mr. Potter, Miss Weasley but I've already helped the other two what trouble in paradise do you two have," he ask airily. Ginny's sharp intake of breath and rigid frame startled everyone as Salentria entered the room.
"I can't Harry please just, can we go back, I'll just sleep in Ron's bed, I'll leave in the morning I can't do this anymore." Ginny said as she was about to walk out the door.
"Miss Weasley you just stocked into my storage room about to make a very powerful forgetful potion, not only should you have 100 days of detention you should be expelled, but if you would just tell me Miss Weasley a maybe we can put this behind us."
Harry was so lost and confused angry not at Ginny but her feelings, her heart ache. The passion she had for him but the fear of a man that was no longer alive, a piece of his soul that was destroyed long ago.
"Ginny, please can you just let someone help you, I've tried so hard. Have I not given you space, I'm sorry if I scared you please just . . ." Harry begged.
" No Harry this isn't you fault but, I can't be with you not right now maybe not ever all I do is think about him." Ginny said.
"Would anyone care to explain" Severus ask.
Ginny looked at him knowing he could just look in her mind she gave a knowing look to him. He swiftly moved his wand and looked into her mind looking at the pain seeing the agony her memory possessed. It was an awful memory something that made him want puke. She was so young then only a first year and her innocence was taken maybe not physically but mentally. When he had seen enough he quickly looked back into her eyes.
"You poor child." He managed.
"Please talk her out of this professor."Hary ask.
"Its hard to do that Mr. Potter I can understand why she would want to forget, but you are correct its very tricky and you might forget things you shouldn't its best to talk about the situation."
"One to talk Severus." Salentria butted in.
Ginny smiled. "I just I just can't be with Harry, in the way I would like." Ginny blushed as did Harry.
"I don't really mean sexually, well I do, but I just feel so fragile and I'm not. I am most definitely not." Ginny got out.
"Then there is no need to worry then is there Miss Weasley." She shook her head.
"Miss Weasley Take comfort in knowing that this was long ago and though I don't condone your thoughts of Mr. Potter, you know he dare I say loves you, trust him for both your sakes." Severus let out.
Salentria Smiled as did Ginny She ran up to Severus smiled.
"Thank you, Thank you so much." Ginny said as she hugged him.
"Are all the female student population this fond of you Severus." Salentria ask.
"Not usually." He laughed and they all did.
"Now if we may I was attending to some personal business as he motioned to Professor Barry. Everyone blushed except him and both couples went their separate ways.
Ginny and Harry went back to his room quietly. Ginny felt a million times better telling Professor Snape. Well more like showing now she thought about it. It was like he carried her burdens as well. She didn't really want her grief for him to bare but for some reason when she saw his eyes it was like he was sort of relieved she told him but also very upset.
Harry was happy she had already put a slight spring in her step letting him also have a spring in his. They walked through the door of his and Ron's room and it both hit them at once they were utterly tired. The time was unknown until he looked at his watch. It was 11:45 and they still had a whole day of class to get through. Ginny was done she wrapped her arms around Harry as he dragged her down to the bed and drifted off to sleep with her in his arms.
The next day came with everyone smiling as they walked down to meet each other. Everyone was glowing with happiness. Neither couple had talked so neither knew of them going to Severus for help. It would have to be a later discussion after classes.
Lunch soon was over and the four went to the last class they had together with professor Ben Delieno. His class's and gotten better and better they were talking about so much. Today's agenda was discussing wizarding roles in the work force. Ron wanted to play quiditch along with his younger sister. Harry had wanted to look into helping out at Hogwarts with DADA. Hermione wanted to go into potion and charm research or healing.
As they went around the room it seemed like most classmates were debating between one or two things. They didn't talk about anything boring really just what the class was interested in. Then they went to Luna Lovegood and she said she wanted to be a sex therapist. It was strange when she said this because no one laughed no one was in shock it was like it was the most natural thing to come out of her mouth.
"Well sex therapy wasn't on my list of things to talk about but okay. Why sex therapist Luna?" Professor Delieno proceeded.
"Well you know all those huladobeys out in about not allowing couples to reach orgasm is such a horrible thing." Luna replied.
At this some people shook their heads others like Professor Delieno raised their eyebrows.
"Okay well all I can tell you is good luck in that profession I really hope that I will not be needing your services." Delieno said as serious as possible which made the rest the class burst out in laughter.
The day ended with Ron and Hermione going to relax and Harry and Ginny off to potions class. It felt odd walking into his class after what had happened the day before with the couple but they knew Snape would never mention a word. He may be mean and cruel in class but he was the best when it came to personal secrets. That's why none of them never mentioned the romance he had between a certain professor. Most people never really noticed and if they did notice it was mainly gossip about how good he was in bed. Snape never cared much for gossip but never really stopped it from going around. Harry was pretty sure he and the other staff have bets based on gossip. He would soon find out if his career decision is in order. Then it hit him he may be a co-worker of Professor Severus Snape, war hero. He never thought it would be odd to be beside him teach and yelling and learning from students. It was odd to think that he was old enough to such things. Then he really thought about it. He and Ginny were old enough to get married technically, be able to have babies and have their own place. His head was starting to hurt at how fast actual life was hitting him.
